| # Bash Reference Manual — Cleaned Dataset |
|
|
| This dataset contains cleaned and structured text extracted from the GNU Bash Reference Manual, Edition 5.3. |
|
|
| The original manual was converted to plain text and processed to reduce PDF extraction artifacts, remove navigation references and page numbers, preserve paragraph structure, and split the content into topic-centered sections. |
|
|
| The dataset is intended primarily for language-model pretraining and continued pretraining, especially for models learning Bash, shell scripting, command-line usage, and Linux-related concepts. |
|
|
| ## Format |
|
|
| Each record contains metadata such as: |
| - chapter title |
| - section title |
| - cleaned text |
| - word and character counts |
|
|
| ## License |
|

| The source manual is published by the Free Software Foundation under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) 1.3 or later, with no Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts, or Back-Cover Texts. |
